Start Date Context Status Description
2019-05-22 hst_0704.pmap operational New TMC file incorporating changes to ACS throughput tables. Quick fix tables correct the SBC detector throughput to remove 30 percent zeropoint error. This is a temporary set meant for Cycle 27 phase II preparations. The filter throughput tables contain a correction for the time dependent sensitivity, assuming and observation date of April 1, 2020 midcycle. The F115LP and F125LP filters still contain a 5 percent systematic offset. A refined set of tables will be delivered once the analysis is complete and Instrument Science Reports published.
2019-05-17 hst_0702.pmap archived Corrects biasfile aperture mapping for ACS WFC data taken before SM4. Previous rmap only matched observations taken in the aperture named WFC instead of all apertures. Pre SM4 ACS WFC data use either the full-frame bias or a cutout of the full-frame bias to calibrate data.
2019-05-16 hst_0701.pmap archived These files are used in the dark current subtraction for WFC3 UVIS products for from April 20th through May 13th 2019. Delivered by Catherine Martlin for WFC3.
2019-05-10 hst_0700.pmap archived These files were generated following the ACS WFC anneal on May 03, 2019, and should be used to calibrate ACS WFC observations taken between Apr 02, 2019 and May 03, 2019. Delivered by Tyler Desjardins for ACS.
